desk: two-column layout + search field/button height fix

- Top section is now three equal columns: Now spans the first two (col-lg-8)
  with Posts + Today I Learned beneath it (col-md-6 each), and the meta sidebar
  (Edited / Bookmarks / Year) as the third (col-lg-4, no offset so the edges are
  symmetric). Removed the left divider on the sidebar.
- Dropped the Projects, Topics and Tags sections; halved the Posts and TIL pulls
  (35 -> 18) so the left column height roughly matches the sidebar.
- Search actions moved to the left with more top spacing.
- Fixed the search submit button towering over the field: the field inherited a
  20px bottom margin from .entry-content input which stretched the input-group
  (and the button) to 58px — zeroed it so both are 38px; button flex-centers its
  icon. (pull_til_tags()/dw_til_tags_html() added for a TIL tag cloud, currently
  unused after the Tags section was dropped.)
- Rebuilt v4-style.min.css.
